METER DESCRIPTION
Badger Model M3000 electromagnetic meters are ATEX
approved for Zone 2 hazardous locations. To achieve
hazardous location ratings electrodes in the flow tube are
Intrinsically Safe, designed according to ATEX standards.
Those standards limit the amount of energy that can be sent
to electrodes to prevent a spark from occurring.
This configuration can also provide a more convenient
amplifier programming and display placement for monitoring
meter readings.
Empty Pipe Detection
Badger Magnetoflow Mag meters are equipped with an
Empty Pipe Detection feature. Empty Pipe Detection is
accomplished by positioning a third electrode between 12
o’clock and 1 o’clock. Any time this electrode is not covered
by fluid, for a minimum of five seconds, the meter displays
an Empty Pipe Detection condition, sends out an error
message if desired, and stops measuring to maintain
accuracy. When the electrode is again covered with fluid, the
error message disappears and the meter continues
measuring.
Amplifier Mounting Configuration Options
Two amplifier-mounting configuration options are available to
meet a variety of meter placement and environmental
conditions.
Meter Mount Configuration
The Meter Mount configuration has the amplifier mounted
directly on the detector. This compact, self-contained
configuration minimizes installation wiring.
METER/AMPLIFIER LOCATION, ORIENTATION and
APPLICATIONS
Remote Amplifier Outdoor Location
The amplifier can be installed and operated outdoors.
However, protection from the elements must be considered:
1. Be aware of the ambient environment and temperature
ratings for the unit -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C).
2. If an indoor location is within 100 feet (30m) of the
detector installation, consider increasing the cable length
and mounting the amplifier indoors.
3. Consider mounting the amplifier in a IP 67 outdoor
enclosure.
4. At a minimum, fabricate a roof or shield over and/or
around the amplifier to protect the LCD display screen from
sunlight and to keep the possibility of rain or moisture
problems to a minimum.
Temperature
To prevent meter damage in any environment, minimum and
maximum temperature ranges must be observed.
1. For remote amplifier applications, the fluid temperature
range is -4°F to 221°F (-20°C to 105°C) at a maximum
ambient temperature of 122°F (50°C) for the following liner
materials: PTFE.
Meter Mount
2. For remote amplifier applications, the fluid temperature
range is 32°F to 178°F (0°C to 80°C) at a maximum ambient
temperature of 122°F (50°C) for the following liner materials:
Hard rubber.
Remote Mount Configuration
Remote Mount configuration places the amplifier and its
functions at a location separate from the fluid flow and
detector. This configuration is necessary in situations where
process fluid temperature or environment exceeds amplifier
ratings. A remote mounting bracket is supplied.
3. For meter mounted amplifier applications, the fluid
temperature range is -4°F to 212° (-20°C to 100°C) at a
maximum ambient temperature of 122°F (50°C) for the
following liner materials: PTFE.
Detector and amplifier are connected by wires, run through
conduit, between junction boxes on the detector and remote
mounted amplifier. The distance between the detector
junction box and amplifier junction box can be up to 100 feet
(30m).
9
4. For meter mounted amplifier applications, the fluid
temperature range is 32°F to 178°F (0°C to 80°C) at a
maximum ambient temperature of 122°F (50°C) for the
following liner materials: Hard rubber.
Horizontal Placement
In a horizontal piping orientation, mount the detector to
piping with the flow measuring electrode axis in a horizontal
plane (3 and 9 o’clock).
5. The ambient temperature range surrounding the amplifier
is -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C.)
This arrangement prevents solids build-up or sediment
deposit or accumulation on the electrodes.
6. The ambient temperature range surrounding a remote
junction box mounted to the detector is -4°F to 122°F (-20°C
to 50°C.)
Pipelines and Fluid Flow
Although the Model M3000 is rugged, there are some
pipeline and fluid flow conditions that should be avoided:
1. Do not install the meter where extreme pipe vibrations
exist. If vibrations are present, secure piping before and after
the meter with appropriate pipe supports. If vibrations can’t
be restrained, consider mounting the amplifier remotely.
2. Avoid installing the detector close to pipeline valves,
fittings or impediments that can cause flow disturbances.
3. For detectors with PTFE liners, avoid installing the
detector on suction sides of pumps.
4. Avoid installing the detector on outlet sides of piston or
diaphragm pumps. Pulsating flow can affect meter
performance.
5. Avoid locations near equipment producing electrical
interference such as electric motors, transformers, variable
frequency, power cables, etc.
6. Verify both ends of the signal cables are securely
fastened.
7. Place power and signal cables in separate conduit.
8. Place the meter where there is enough access for
installation/maintenance purposes.
Straight Pipe Requirements
Sufficient straight pipe runs are required at the detector inlet
and outlet for optimum meter accuracy and performance. An
equivalent of three (3) diameters of straight pipe is required
on the inlet (upstream) side. Two (2) diameters are required
on the outlet (downstream) side.
Pipe Reducer Requirements
With pipe reducers a smaller size meter can be mounted in
larger pipelines. This arrangement may increase low flow
accuracy.
Meter Orientation
Mag Meters can operate accurately in any pipeline
orientation and can measure volumetric flow in forward and
reverse directions.
There are no special requirements for standard, concentric,
pipe reducers.
Custom fabricated pipe reducers must have a minimum
slope angle of 15 degrees to minimize flow disturbances and
excessive loss of head. If this is not possible, install the
custom pipe reducers as if they were fittings and install the
amount of straight pipe stated previously.
NOTE: A Forward Flow direction arrow is printed on the
detector label.
Vertical Placement
Mag meters attain optimal performance when placed
vertically, with liquid flowing upward and meter electrodes in
a closed, full pipe.
Vertical placement allows the pipe to remain completely full,
even in low flow, low pressure applications and it prevents
any solids build-up or sediment deposit or accumulation on
the liner and/or electrodes.
NOTE: Carefully observe the “Forward Flow” label on the
meter body and install the meter accordingly.
10
Chemical Injection Applications
For water line applications with a chemical injection point,
install the meter upstream of the injection point. This
eliminates any meter performance issues.
If a meter must be installed downstream of a chemical
injection connection, the distance between the meter and
the injection point must be significant; 50 to 100 feet (15 to
30 meters). When the water/chemical solution reaches the
meter it must be a complete, homogeneous mixture. If the
.
injection point is too close, the meter senses two (2) different
liquids (conductivity is different for each) and correct data
output cannot be assured. The injection method: spaced
bursts, continuous stream of drips, a liquid or gas can also
affect downstream readings by the meter.
Do not install the meter in a vertical,
downward flow section of pipe
Sometimes it’s difficult to specify the exact downstream
placement distances because of the number of variables.
Contact Badger Meter Technical Support, +49 7025 92080,
to review your application if necessary.
Partially Filled Pipe Situations
It is possible to encounter situations where the process pipe
is momentarily only partially filled. Examples include; lack of
backpressure, insufficient line pressure, gravity flow
applications, etc.
ALWAYS locate ON/OFF valves on the
downstream side of the meter
To eliminate these situations:
Do not install the meter in
the highest point of the pipeline
To minimize the possibility of partially full pipe flows in
horizontal, gravity or low pressure applications, create a pipe
arrangement that insures the detector remains full of liquid at
all times.

8. Attach the chamber cover.
Display screens and screen data are manipulated with
magnet switches or push buttons. By operating the switches
or buttons different screens are accessed, program
parameters are selected and changed and settings are
reprogrammed.
If no contact is made with switches or buttons for 2 minutes,
in any parameter, the display returns automatically to the
Main Screen.
19
Two Main Screen Format settings are possible. Which
setting to use is determined by the fluid Flow Direction
through your meter. The settings are Uni-Directional flow or
Bi-Directional flow (reference page 27/28 to set flow
direction).
ACCESS to AMPIFIER SCREENS, DATA and
PARAMETER PROGRAMMING
NOTE: The M3000 can be programmed to meter many flow
situations and serve a variety of purposes during a
production process. To meet diverse needs there are a wide
variety of programming options and parameters. Your
metering requirements probably do not require the use of all
program screens, options and parameters.
Both main screens display the rate of flow (R=) and flow
units (reference page 26 to set flow units).
Your M3000 amplifier is delivered preprogrammed, based on
information available at the time the unit was ordered. In
most instances it will not require any changes.
Uni-Directional Flow Main Screen
Uni-directional Flow Totalizes Pipe Flow in only one
direction, the flow direction on the detector label. (reference
page 27/28 to set uni-directional flow)
Use this section to program flow signal outputs or reprogram

ADDENDUM B
Replace fuses with fuses of the same ampere rating and
type. Refer to wiring diagrams when ampere ratings are
unknown or questionable.
MAINTENANCE
Mandatory, routine or scheduled maintenance should not be
required for the Badger M3000 Mag Meter electronics or flow
tube after proper installation.
Detector coil and incoming amplifier power supplies are each
protected by a fuse in the amplifier.
However, some occurrences may require personnel to
perform the following:
· Flow Tube and Electrode Cleaning
· Fuse Replacement
· Amplifier I&C Card Stack Replacement
Detector coils are protected by a 630mA, 250VAC, slow
blow fuse
Incoming amplifier power is protected by a 500mA, 250VAC,
slow blow fuse
These maintenance procedures are discussed in this
section.
Fuse ratings are listed on the circuit board, next to the fuse
holders. Refer to the M-Series, Model 4000
To access and replace fuses:
Disconnect main power to the unit before attempting
any device maintenance or cleaning. Do not clean
components inside the amplifier or junction box.
1. Remove display chamber cover. Turn the cover
counterclockwise to remove it from the amplifier. If
necessary, use a strap wrench.
Flow Tube and Electrode Cleaning
At times flow tube, electrodes, amplifier/junction box
housings and the amplifier window may need periodic
cleaning, depending on process fluid properties, fluid flow
rate and surrounding environment.
Clean the flow tube and electrodes by following the
material handling and cleaning procedures documented
in MSD Sheets for the products(s) that were in contact
with the flow tube and electrodes.
Should flow tube and/or electrode cleaning become
necessary:
2. Remove the 2 display card screws and washers.
1. Disconnect detector from pipeline.
2. Clean electrodes with isopropyl alcohol or fresh, clean
water depending on the chemical compatibility of the
measured fluid.
3. Reconnect detector to pipeline
Fuse Replacement
Disconnect main power to the unit before attempting
any device maintenance.
Risk of electrical shock. Replace fuse ONLY with the
same type and rating.
Authorized personnel must perform fuse replacements.
36
Because PCBs are complex circuits, with all meter functions
enabled through multiple links and layers, determining the
exact board and circuit that is causing a system problem is
difficult and usually requires test equipment.
3. Tilt card up/out approximately 45 degrees at the holding
clips.
Should a meter problem occur:
1. Call Badger Meter at +49 7025 92080, and discuss the
problem with a Technical Support Specialist.
2. If the problem appears to originate in a PCB, it will be
recommended that the entire PCB stack be removed and
returned to Badger Meter.

ADDENDUM C
In the Flow Chart:
1. Each separate screen is inside a box.
2. If a screen “branches”, an arrow points right and each screen of the branch is in a box.
3. When there is text, but it’s not in a box, that signifies a parameter setting and a short explanation is given
of the parameter.
Mark on the chart what parameters need to be set. Note parameter settings on the chart. Program your
amplifier accordingly.
Keep the chart as a reference for other shifts and personnel and to monitor meter performance.
